2. Confirm that no FRU is currently listed in Faulted or Deconfigured status.
3. Turn off the power to all domains.
4. Confirm that all domains have stopped.
5. Change the key position on the operator panel from Locked to Service.
6. Collect an XSCF snapshot to archive system status prior to upgrade.
If a problem should occur during the upgrade procedure, a snapshot of the
system status might be helpful.
